William Henry Morris died on Nov. 4, 2012, surrounded by his loved ones.

Born on Aug. 9, 1921, William spent his early years in Villanova, Pa. After serving during World War II as Second Lieutenant in the Army Air Corps, he was a pilot for US Air until his retirement in 1981.

William took a lively interest in motorcycles, boats, and antique cars. As a member of the Quiet Birdmen, he continued to fly recreationally for many years after he retired. He possessed a multifaceted and deeply inquiring mind, and throughout his life he was an avid reader who especially enjoyed history and engineering. He was keenly interested in the applied sciences and kept abreast of the latest developments in information technology.

William Morris is survived by his loving wife of sixty-four years, Kathleen; his son, William and wife Judy McCluney; son, David; daughter, Marcia and husband Martin O’Mara; daughter, Susan and husband Michael Muscatiello; son, Francis and wife Jeanne; daughter, Elizabeth and husband Mark Marchuk; daughter, Mary Lou and husband Stephen Payne; as well as by his sisters, Margaret Stineman and Katharine Fisher; his fourteen grandchildren; and his three great-grandchildren.

The Morris family requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the Disabled Veterans Fund.

Funeral arrangements are private under the direction of the Holcombe-Fisher Funeral Home, 147 Main Street, Flemington.
